5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids), Sophora Flavescens Root Extract is considered very low risk when used on the skin. The safety listing for this ingredient shows only low-level concerns overall. Most children will not have problems, but a small number may have sensitive skin.
Before using a new product on a child’s skin, try a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. Use a small amount at first, avoid broken or very red skin, and keep the product away from the eyes and mouth. If you see redness, swelling, itching, or any new rash, stop use and rinse the area with water. If the reaction is more than mild, contact your pediatrician.
The ingredient’s safety listing notes only low-level concerns for things like allergies and other long-term effects, but parents should still watch for local skin irritation or contact allergy. The practical warning comes from the provided ingredient safety data: stop use if the child develops redness, itching, swelling, blisters, or other new skin changes. Also avoid using this extract on infants (under 1 year) and on broken skin.
